HONIKIWI.
(Own Correspondent) The October social took place in the school on Saturday night last. There was a fair attendance of and their friends, and a very enjoyable time was spent was kept up with until 11 p.m. the music being furnished by Coe, Roke and Puruhau. Miss Budden contributed a recitation. "The Inventor's Wife" A. Budden sang 'Juanita'; the Maori children a song in Maori and the other children a school song. The next social is to take place on the 7th of November, the Saturday before King's Birthday, when it is to be hoped there will be a larger attendance. Mr Hows' sawmill is now in full swing and should prove of great benefit to settlers, enabling them, as it will to get building material without having to cart it all the way from Otorohanga. A good deal of hush is being felled in the district this year, and more land brought under the plough. The grass is making a fair show and crops look well. When all the contracts for road work are finished a very material improvernent will have been made in the means of transit.
